Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the use of deep wells to tap into underground water sources. The author was prompted to write this book after observing that previous wells had failed to meet London's growing water demands. The book is organized into five sections. The first section introduces…general ideas about where water can be found underground, and how the geology of an area can impact water availability. The second section describes the geology of the London area, with specific attention paid to the layers of sediment which hold London's water. The third section examines the various water-bearing strata around London, and evaluates the potential of each strata for meeting London's water needs. The fourth section considers the theoretical underpinnings for why some strata hold water and other do not, and the fifth section covers various factors that need to be considered when drilling wells, such as the type of strata being drilled through. The author concludes by arguing that deep wells offer a viable alternative to traditional sources of water, and could help meet the growing water demands of London and other large cities. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
